False rebellion

False rebellion

Rebellion is a word most use too easily.
We are proud to call ourselves rebels,
yet is rebellion really something so simple,
so self-declared, so effortless to claim?

If breaking rules was enough,
everyone would be free.
If attitude was enough,
no one would feel trapped.

Not all rebellions are true most are just illusions. 
They only guide you into the illusion of freedom.
A path that feels bold,
yet somehow already expected.

You feel defiant,
but nothing real shifts.
You move,
but the world around you stays familiar.

Think about it,

a Predesigned Rebellion.

I gave it some thought,
What if the rebellion we choose
is still something the structure allows? 
What if escape only feels like escape
because it was meant to feel that way?

like part of the script.

Sometimes it feels like this:
all the struggle, all the push to break the wall,
might just be movement inside a bigger,
invisible cage.

A fight that looks real, yet goes nowhere.
An illusion of escape.

Maybe escape starts later,
right after you realise the first one wasn’t real.
